Curaçao Technology Exchange has kicked off the construction of what will be the most advanced and newest data centre in the Caribbean and Northern Latin America.

CTEX’s ‘CU-1’ is the first of four 5,200 sq m super high-density data centres to be built in Curaçao on top of a mountain terrace 60 meters above sea level. Through local and international partners, such as Schneider Electric and CISCO, the company has officially started construction of the Tier-IV design, LEED certified data centre. The facility will be interconnected with six existing submarine fibre systems, while additional international carriers are planning to make the facility a major carrier interconnection point for the Caribbean, Latin America and Europe.
